what all do i need to get the LT1 running????

iam buying a wrecked 94 bird so i will have everthing but i need to know if i could just pull the motor & tranny and slap it in my camaro and plug the computer in and have it run iam not really worried about the gauges right now(do that stuff later when i put the dash in) what iam really try to say is what all do i need to hook up to have the car going in like 2 days time. ??????

 

If all you want is to get it running, about all you'll need is power to the computer and a VATS signal. But there is no way you're going to have it driveable in two days unless you had absolutely EVERYTHING you needed layed out by the car. And thats just about impossible because every swap is differnt.


To answer your first question, no you cannot simply plug the computer in and go, there is more wiring to it then that.

 

so what if i just took out my whole dash and wires and then installed the LT1 and the birds dash and then just put it in my camaro would that be easier

 

about how long will this swap take

 

I would research the dash swap as well first. You're talking about a LOT of wiring. With the amount of work you want to do, if you had all day to work on it, I think a week to finish it wouldnt be too far off.
